What is Mineral Slurry carbon steel pipe

Mineral and slurry pipe is for the line pipe that applied in mining industries. A slurry pipeline is designated to transmit ores (Iron, Coal materials), or the industry mining waste, we called the pipeline as taillings. And generally these steel pipes connected in a long distances. Above materials mixed with water, we call slurry. People will use pumps to transport to the final destination then water will be filtered out. Since slurry contained different materials some with abrasive properties, so the pipe could be coated with 3PE, FBE layers to against from corrosion.

Both carbon steel pipe in seamless or welded could be used for the transmission of the slurry. So there is a wide range of material and standards available options to suit for the special working conditions.

ASTM A106 pipe

ASTM 106 pipe refers to the carbon steel pipe manufactured in hot rolled or cold drawn (rolled) seamless. ASTM A106 standard specification covers the seamless pipe that applied in high temperature services. As a result, it could used to carry the fluids (water, oil and gas, slurry), it is an important material for mining industries.

ASTM A53 pipe

ASTM A53 pipe covers welded and seamless steel pipe, in carbon black material and some cases in hot dipped galvanized (zinc coated). This is a basic pipe material, and it’s performances and prices also similar to ASTM A106B, or API 5L B. (We saw some pipes that they these three standards marked, call “Three standards steel pipe” ). So we say A53 pipe also is widely used in mining and slurry services.
